Summer camp is usually a half-incredible half-miserable experience. Especially when you're younger, being away from home that long makes you super homesick (especially after day 4) but depending on where you go, it can be pretty frickin awesome. It's sort of a coming-of-age experience as well.

i remember when i was about 12 years old, my class was going to a" viking camp".
were we should craft,eat,fishing,**** and sleep like in the old Nordic way.
It was kinda rough but, one day at that camp i got the ultimate homesickness, and my female teacher tried to calm me down, and told me i could sleep in her hut that night.
I saw my teacher naked that night.....

It is what it is...I've enjoyed posting here because you get almost instant feedback as to whether your stuff is good or not. Can it be a little disheartening when the twentieth pokemon or brony joke keeps passing you? Sure, but I've managed to carve out a little niche so it's all good. Thanks for the support.

I went to a Baptist church camp once. I'll give you the daily schedule:

7:30 am - wake up, do any crying you need to do for the day ahead.
8:00-8:30 - Breakfast, the faster you are, the more likely you are to get one of the 6 seats.
8:30-11:30 - Church in the hot greenhouse auditorium that went through the civil war which they pass off for a church
11:30-12:00 - Lunch, run away from the wasps
12:00-1:00 - Free time, stay away from the water snakes and God will protect you from them (true story, they told us that)
1:00-3:00 - Church activities, get ready to hold hands with the nearest obese redneck
4:00-5:00 - Formal Worship Hour, don't fall asleep
5:00-6:00 - Dinner, if it moves, then you know it's fresh food
6:00-9:00 - Church, if you fall asleep, you lose your hour of free time tomorrow
9:00-10:00 - Prepare for bed in creaky **** tier cabins (mine had nails coming out of the side)
10:00-7:30 - Sleep (good luck)

Repeat. There's also many terrible stories from that place that I have. The schedule is just the tip of the iceberg. I left after 2 days.

What's with all the church, I mean yeah if you're into it. But seriously you don't need to send your kids away and put them through that because of it.
My friends go to church camp every summer, pisses me off no end, only atheist in the group so I have no friends all summer..

I'm still a Christain but I realized that alot of the kids there aren't even religious. They get sent there because their parents don't feel like taking care of them, and it's a cheap alternative. It's sad really.

This mentally retarted kid was in my cabin when I was there. He shared his cookies with everyone, and did his best to be a nice guy. The "chaperone" was an 18 year old dickweed. He took the retarted kids cookies and was a huge asshole to the kid just because he was retarted. The "chaperone" also made fun of me during the first night because i was moping on my bed because I hated being there so damn much.

******* Christians..
I don't want to start a fight with any Christians, it's just that some of you can be complete assholes and for that I hate you.
Summer camp sucks, they shouldn't put religion in it to make it even worse..
